    In the Notification Server 6.0 SP3 R14 release, the following issues have been fixed:

    Issue Article ID Internal ID
    Windows Server 2008 Package Servers take a long time to download packages. N/A 2634897
    Port scanner closes the 52028 listening port that the power management uses.
    After the Microsoft PortQry 2 port scanner scans the 52028 listening port 6 times, the port closes.    		 N/A 2582390
    Med-V devices that run in NAT mode are unable to determine a proper package server. N/A 2579471
    Client Messages are processed in an endless loop. N/A 2425360
    Blue screens on HP 8440p laptops with the Altiris Agent R13 installed.
    When you install new software on a HP 8440p laptop and shortly after that want to reboot this computer, the Altiris Agent attempts to write to the registry during shutdown, gets into a loop, and then might need to force the shutdown. When the computer starts next time, the corrupted registry causes the blue screen.    		 N/A 2354150
    Packages cannot be delivered to computers because the package delivery infrastructure is out-of-synch. N/A 2223225
    An SQL that checks whether all full control permissions are set correctly is very intensive and can take up to 30 minutes to complete on large customer databases, and may cause the Notification Server 6.0 SP3 R13 update to not complete successfully. N/A 2078119
    Resource merging is very slow. N/A 2070370
    Altiris Agent will randomly stop updating configuration until the Agent is restarted. N/A 2065991
    The Encrypt and Decrypt functions leak memory and do not clean up global memory under all circumstances. N/A 2026822
    Package Servers do not download files if only the timestamp differs from the snapshot.xml information. TECH140644 1908728
    A bug in Quicksoft SMTP component prevents Notification Server from using the Lotus Domino SMTP servers that require authentication. N/A 1580410

    Wow somehow I completely missed this release! There are several fixes in there that I've been dying for (in particular an updated AeXNSCabInstaller.exe so that I can push the NS ActiveX controls to non-admin Win7 workstations)!  And the Package Server issues I think we've also been experiencing, and just not knowing it!

    Hello Triinu,

    I installed this update on one of my test NS 6 boxes, and it seems that the following noted updated is in fact NOT included/updated:

     

    The AltirisNSCabInstaller.exe is not updated to include new versions of the CAB files. N/A 2026209

    I checked with our RPS/AE and he confirmed this; do you know if this update is in fact available, in particular the ComponentONE VSFlex ActiveX control?  There is something wrong with the signature on this ActiveX and it won't install by default; and in turn is causing me quite a lot of headaches!

    Kyle,

    thank you for pointing this out! This issue has not been fixed indeed. I will remove that from the release notes.
